Formatting lost after upgrading to RoboHelp 11

After upgrading from a very old version of RoboHelp to RoboHelp 11 I found that the text formatting was lost in the compiled help on all topics that hadn't been edited in RoboHelp 11. How do I restore the formatting for all topics in the compiled help without editing all 339 topics?

How’s it look in the RH topic Design view? If it’s ok there, then it sounds like a CSS file isn’t being applied to the output files.

You can force it in the Single Source Layout recipe – look for “Apply to All:”

You should also check the output HTML files with a text editor to see if the CSS is being referenced – I found one case last week where the CSS file was called “ABC styles” when the file wanted “ABC_styles” – just renaming it fixed the output.
